The Rock is reportedly the reason behind the delayed release of WrestleMania XL documentary

From The Final Boss’ return on Day 1 to the go-home episode of WrestleMania, the documentary focuses on the journey to the main events. Most notably, the plans changed on the road to the Showcase of Immortals. When the wrestler-turned-actor became a member of the TKO Board of Directors, he signed a deal to compete at this year’s WrestleMania. 

Obviously, this meant he would be facing none other than his cousin, Roman Reigns. However, the overwhelming support for Cody Rhodes presumably led WWE to pivot in another direction. And Rocky ended up turning heel by joining forces with The Bloodline. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that fans are eagerly anticipating the release of the behind-the-scenes footage of the entire buildup to the show.

AJ Styles expressed desire to face The Rock in the future

At Backlash, AJ Styles proved that he’s still one of the best wrestlers in WWE. After silencing the online criticism of being ‘washed’, the Phenomenal One looks to check another box in his legendary career. Recently, the veteran spoke about the possibility of going one-on-one with The Rock.

In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Styles claimed that he wouldn’t mind a future match against The Final Boss. However, the former WWE Champion did mention that he would prefer facing a ‘babyface’ Rock. Talking about his current heel persona, he emphasized that it would take it to a whole new level.

The O.C. leader cited Dominik Mysterio as the epitome of a heel in wrestling. Further, Styles expressed wanting to be more hated than The Judgment Day member and receiving more boos than he currently does. Despite his wishes, the chances of The Great One turning face seem unlikely, especially given the success of his recent run.
